Next March for us on this one:) , was thinking about it for this year but we have only had the S for 13 months as it is and it would make sense to wait.

Also interested, but will have to wait 12 - 18 months:(

NB. The JCW Challenge racing series postponed for a year, not enough competitor support.:eek: (Autosport 21/02/08)

If it can be supplied with an auto box, we may be interested.:D But only if you can get it in other colours than Chilli red. Already got one of them, don't want another red MINI.:rolleyes:

Jason has just showed this to me. Think it is a lot of money by the time you put your bits and bobs on it will probably be about £22k which is waaayyyy too much money to spend on a car.

But you know he will nag nag nag me and we will end up with one.

so, as Jason says probably next March. :(

Looks cracking, but way too expensive by the time you add some toys to it.

Those are two beautiful cars. Think the chilli red and black look superb on both models.

Found this on Motoring Underground. MINI Park Lane has a Challenge Racing Car in the Showroom.

Check the spec and price. Not cheap.

They wouldn't let the guy take pics of the car, so he took from outside the showroom

re the factory order JSW car I wonder if they will have had time to sort out the engine problem of the S before this car goes into production and people spend a shed load of money on it.
